If anyone can confirm which loco this was I would be very grateful; another case of failing to make adequate notes at the time! The 101 members of the Hymek Class were produced in Manchester by Beyer Peacock as a mixed traffic machine but they had not been in traffic for very long before the operating departments discovered that they could reach speeds of 90 mph on heavy expresses and match the schedules of the day. As with the Warships their comparatively light weight (one of the major advantages of hydraulic as distinct from electric transmission which was behind the Western Region decision to go for the idea) reduced their braking capacity but they were still employed on coal and other mineral hauls. The engine was one of the first to be acquired by the DEPG and the first main line diesel to be based on the WSR. [Source: westsomersetrailway.vticket.co.uk/index.php] |
